Exclusive Birchbox Offer

It's no secret that Birchbox is my favourite monthly beauty box, a box I look forward to receiving each month. Today I have a very special offer for Tattooed Tealady readers, in celebration of a very exciting May box!

The May Birchbox is themed around celebrating imagination, creativity and individuality with the Free Your Mind box. With the very first customisable box, the May box is set to get your creative juices flowing, a box beautifully designed and left blank for you to colour in yourself. As well as being a creativity inspiring box, the May Birchbox is packed with the latest beauty must-haves!

Those of you who read my 'Colouring away anxiety' post back in October 2014 will know that I am a big fan of adult colouring books. In recent months the popularity of adult colouring books has grown immensely, marketed as a great way to relax, unwind and de-stress. When I found out that the May Birchbox was one I could colour in myself, I was more than a little bit excited!

Over the past few days I've been colouring in my May Birchbox, and it's become a little bit of an addiction! I decided to use Sharpie pens, as the box is sturdy enough not to bleed through and great for something like a permanent marker - whereas with my colouring books I'm limited to fine pens or colouring pencils, as felt tips or Sharpies would bleed through the page. I think having a customisable Birchbox is such a fab idea, because I for one definitely love upcycling my boxes use month and using them for storage, or turning them into gift boxes for friends and family. This way you get to make it look exactly how you want it to look, whilst unwinding and having fun at the same time! I'll be featuring a full review of all the products included inside the May Birchbox later this month - so keep your eyes peeled!

In celebration of the May Birchbox, you can subscribe to Birchbox for just £5 with my exclusive discount code - MayTT - which will give you your first Birchbox at half price for just £5 instead of the usual £10. Not only do you get the first customisable Birchbox packed with beauty goodies for just £5, but you also get the opportunity to select one of the beauty samples yourself! This month Birchbox are offering subscribers the chance to choose their own full size WAH London mani must-have product! So what are you waiting for?

Just read your colouring away anxiety post, I bought both those books January last year and I love them for taking my mind off life! You should check out Millie Marotta's animal Kingdom which is my recent addition, the images are gorgeous and the paper's heavy enough to take on normal felt pens, and the details not as small as secret garden - so less achey concentration eyes :p!

Ahh amazing! I've been contemplating signing up to Birchbox and now this offer has convinced me. I'm also a massive fan of adult colouring, it helps with my anxiety loads I'm so glad to see lots of other people doing it too :)

I keep meaning to say this but always forget, I always adore how well written your posts are, I think you're a fantastic writer - not to mention your photography is pretty much always on point. Love reading your posts!
